So, um… Green Bay or Pittsburgh?
The Packers bookended my Eagles season by beating Philly in Week 1 and in the playoffs (costing me an embarrassing wager with Torgo from PSNation), so I guess I’ll pull for them. Also, I just couldn’t ever bring myself to root for Ben Roethlisberger.

Great list Jeff!
Oh, and even though I’m from Minnesota, I’ll be cheering on the packers!
Will we hear and see more developers coming on this Blog to talk about their games?- Valkyria Chronicles 3, Parasite Eve: The 3rd Birthday, and my most anticipated game: Catherine??? Also, any plans to have them in Alternate, Collector’s, Limited or Ultimate Editions for those games I mentioned???
Speaking of “Editions” – I am VERY (if not most utterly) disappointed that SCE of A have not done anything to secure “Editions” for us here in Stateside! Why is that? Japan and Europe are the only two continents that are very well treated with these privileges… But why not for us?
I hope you can get them on this blog real soon. Although, I am praying fervently, hoping that Atlus would be the one to announce they are going to localize Catherine game for Stateside!
It’s much harder to get Japanese developers on the blog due to distance, language, and timing logistics (they’re asleep when the post goes live, for instance, and then can’t comment reply in a timely manner). We do get quite a few, but it’s just less common.
SCE also would not be the one to blame for games like those you mention not getting collectors editions – that’s up to the publishers.
Atlus is an exception though – they almost always have a collectors edition, and frequently appear on the blog.
